Hi everyone!!!! Here’s what I’m wearing today. Thanks for all the enthusiastic responses to yesterday’s post – I will definitely show you more outfit combinations now! Hope you enjoy today’s tichel as well. It has a lot of texture and patterns (even for me, lol) but the darker, subdued colours make it work!
And if anyone is wondering about the weird earring placement accident, I invite you to take a guess about why I have two holes in one ear and one in the other! (Hint: has to do with playing the cello!)
Andrea….since I don’t use facebook, I will comment here instead. I like the wearing of the New York Bright as your first layer….it seems you used three tichels…right? Anyway…I really like your cute picture and pretty subdued colors….and to see you wearing just one layer on top…it’s getting warmer outside! I used to be as slim as you…..just watch your scales daily as the weight can creep up on you and you start buying larger sizes….I don’t know why I let that happen to myself…..I just kept on eating as i did in my 20’s…..by stepfather said once that my weight will go up when my metabolism slows down….how right he was!!! haha I’m 70 now….April 2nd!!! In our local paper was an wonderful little piece about Anne Frank….and they had taken some sweet words from her diary dated April 5,(( I think ..or the 6th) 1944….to think i was a wee babe just born when she was hiding in her attic hideout…..it was chilling.

You lean your head to the right when you play to make room for the cello neck on your left side. So your earrings will be even when you do so. Yes? 🙂

Close! Hint: I do not generally use the second hole 🙂

Aww boo! Lol. Does it keep the earring higher up off your shoulder while you’re playing? I could see that being annoying.

Hmmm ok here’s another clue: when the earring is in my left ear (the same side that the cello neck is on) can you forsee any potential problems?

Oh ok. It’s to hold the other earring so that it doesn’t catch on the neck and/or strings. I feel a bit slow now. Lol

YES!!!! You got it!!! Most people are totally baffled!

Woohoo! Well I remembered having to take any dangly earrings out when I played my drum in marching band. Those carriers would catch anything, earrings, necklaces, etc. But I never would’ve thought of a second hole as a solution. Very clever. Lol

I would say the earring has a tendency to get caught on the cello so you move that ear ring for playing into the second hole on the other ear. Very clever.

I vote partial double because you’d have issues with tangling/click-clacking on the strings/neck/tuning pegs. 🙂

Hi, many people have guessed about the earring holes. But I was wondering why they are in your RIGHT ear. Do you Yo-Yo Ma or Pablo Cassalls a lot? That is the only way I can see danglies (long earrings) getting into your strings or tuning pegs. I can see however a long earring getting caught on you clothes, especially if you are going for accented low C’s. Love your blog!
Ps…Aliyah has been spirit changing and the non slip headbands are easily found here! :-).

They’re in my right ear – the cello goes on the left side 🙂 So earrings easily clack against the strings and are very annoying (let’s not get into the issue of hoops). So I take my earring out of my left ear when playing and stick it in the extra hole so it doesn’t get lost! Only issue is that I usually forget about it and then walk around with two of the same earrings in one ear and none in the other 😛

Hmm, I never thought what long earrings might do to my violin playing. That might be a problem!!

My gosh when I was teaching violin (long story… I can barely crack out a discernible twinkle!) I ALWAYS had to take out my earring – it would get caught all the time!
